Hedman (upper-body) will be back in the Lightning lineup on Saturday.

Hedman has missed the last seven games with an upper-body injury, but will be back in the lineup vs. the Senators. Hedman has had a slow start to the season, collecting just four points (2G / 2A) in his first nine games, but should be active in all formats tonight.

Hedman (lower-body) will travel on the Lightning’s four-game road-trip.

Hedman, who suffered a lower-body injury on January 11th, will travel with the team to Western Canada, which is a good sign that he’s getting closer to a return. Hedman is three weeks in to a three-to-six week timetable, so his return is expected to be on the horizon. The Lightning get back into action on Tuesday, so monitor his status during tomorrow’s morning skate and then as the week progresses.
